Do you want the Sunday school answer or the personal?
Sunday School -
He died to save me from my sins those which I know of and those I don't.
Personal -
He saved me from myself. He gave me hope when he humbled me to the point of grief so I would call out to him and know that he is there no matter what, no matter the cost. He gave me a foundation with which I cannot do without because I'd crumble. He took everything that I would withhold and made me lift my head and be able to walk without shame of my past.

1. He who was without sin, took my sins upon Him and bore my punishment.
2. He restored me to God the Father through His faithfulness.
3. He defeated Satan and all the powers of darkness.
4. He led captivity captive and has the keys of Death and Hell.
5. He fulfilled all the prophesies of the suffering Messiah in the Old Testament.
6. He redeemed all His believers from the curse of the Law, through His blood.
7. He arose the third day, He ascended into heaven after 40 days, He sent the Holy Spirit on the day of Pentecost, and even now sits at the right hand of His Father and makes intercession for His believers against the accusations of Satan, the accuser of the brethren.
Grace and Peace!

He was executed by the Romans for stirring up discontent among the occupied people of Judea. He didn't choose the cross, it just happened to be how the Romans carried out the death penalty. So what did he do for me? I wasn't going to exist for another two thousand years. He could not have known anything about me. So he did nothing.

He died because he got caught in the groundswell caused by his own teachings & the backlash of the establishment that he threatened.
Got to ask the question.. Why would a supreme being allow his "son" to be horribly murdered to pay for the evil ways of an insignificant species such as mankind,
Seems like the long way to go.

...He was mocked, beaten, scourged (whipped) and crucified (an incredibly painful method of execution perfected by Rome). It was no mistake - it was part of God's plan of salvation.
...He took my place on the cross, suffered instead of me on the cross, He died to pay the penalty for my sins, and for all those who would believe on Him. Jesus paid it all; all to Him I owe.

He made it possible for my sins to be forgiven once and for all if after I repent of those sins, I don't perform them anymore. When He died, it became possible to get this forgiveness without animal sacrifice or going to a "priest' to get "absolution".

He was supposedly to suffer and to die forthe sins of the world, mainly the Jews whom God chose.
Whatever it was, he knew the pain and suffering coming most of his adult life so I guess he kinda cool dud to accept his destiny. Must have been really extreme maximum pain before he died.
Whatever your belief, let be. BTW, I am non-C too.
